Details: On Thursday Bartholomew Foley, condemned for sheep stealing at Port Dalrymple, was also executed. He came a prisoner to the Colony about 13 years ago, a boy not exceeding 12 or 13 years of age; but depravity had grounded in his youthful principles, and he very soon exhibited occasions for pitying the miseries to which a propensity to error had doomed him in his youth. He was for the entire space of four or five years employed in the gaol gang; for as he approached to manhood he seemed only desirous of confirming himself in obdurate and determined vice. His crimes were very numerous, and his punishments frequent, till at length he unhappily became no further useful in society, than by a melancholy example to warn others against prosecuting a line of conduct so terrible as his had been. From the moment of his condemnation, however, he became the repentent sinner - the prodigal restored to hope. His temporal destiny he acknowledged to be just, and hoped forgivness of his crimes in Heaven, as his penitence was sincere and full. At the place of execution he appeared with that firmness which the hope of mercy can alone bestow upon a suffering criminal. He sang two hymns, loudly, distinctly, and with such animated fervour as to give peculiar melody to his accents; and when about to be launched into eternity addressed the spectators in a speech, in which he reviewed his past life, declaring that from the age of infancy his crimes had involved him in pain and suffering; for that Providence had constantly persecuted him for his offences, and left him no shelter from the penalties of his iniquities. To the Rev. Mr. Cowper, who attended him with the kindest attention from the time of his condemnation, he behaved with the most reverential respect, and declared that to his pious attention he was indebted for the peace of mind which he then felt. About nine oclock he was launched into eternity leaving the world in the firm hope of an eternal life and mercy in the world to come
